SPECIFICATION
POOR QUALITY , Tinted opal glasses and production thereof GB2077716A 1 This invention relates to tinted opal glasses.
Opal glasses have been known to the glass art for many years. Such glasses contain a second phase dispersed therewithin which exhibits a refractive index which differs from that of the glassy matrix. It is this difference in refractive index which imparts opacification to the glass body. Opal glasses have been utilized extensively in such consumer product applications as culinary ware and tableware.
There are two broad types of opal glasses based upon the manner of manufacture thereof. The first group has been termed spontaneous opacifiable glasses or -spontaneous opals---. Such glasses develop opacity as the molten batch is cooled and shaped into a glass article. The second group has been termed thermally opacfiable glasses or -reheat opals---. Those glasses require the application of a subsequent heat treatment to a glass body to effect opacification 15 therein. Since the cost of manufacture is a significant factor in determining the selection of an opal glass for a particular utility, it is apparent that -spontaneous opals- are preferred to reheat opals---.
The opacity observed in -spontaneous opals", is commonly generated through the growth of crystals therein as the molten batch is cooled and shaped into a glass article of a desired configuration. Customarily, the crystal content developed in situ is less than 10% by volume of the body such that the physical properties of the glass, other than optical transmission, will be very slightly affected, if at all.
Whereas opal glasses have been and are presently marketed in the asformed state, i.e., the undecorated state, consumer interest has greatly increased for articles having decorations thereon. For example, in culinary ware and tableware, the consumer has demanded products having an aesthetically pleasing appearance coupled with long time service capability. Thus, such products are subject to chemical and mechanical abuse resulting from handling, food contact, and, particularly, from contact with dishwasher detergents.
The tinting of glass to impart an integral colour thereto has been practiced in the art for a 30 long time.- Coloured Glasses, W.A. Weyl, Dawson's of Pall Mall, London, 1959, is a classic text which surveys the wide variety of ions which can be used to impart colours to glass and suggests mechanisms by which such colours are generated. Tinting glass has the obvious advantage in that the colour exists throughout the body of the article and will not be removed via surface abuse.
Spontaneously opacifiable glass bodies wherein alkali metal fluoride and/or alkaline earth metal fluoride crystals comprise the opacifying phase are well-recognized in the glass art. Such bodies exhibit a dense, milky white appearance and have been employed extensively in the formation of culinary ware and tableware.
We have found that a series of tinted, spontaneous opal glasses, wherein calcium fluoride 40 (CaF2) crystals constitute the opacifying phase, can be developed ranging in colour from ivory to yellow-beige to tan to grayish-brown depending upon the amounts of utilizing additions of nickel oxide (NiO), titanium oxide (Tio2) and cerium oxide (Ce02) in controlled amounts. The incorporation of NiO alone results in a brownish colouration which demonstrates a significant neutral gray character. The inclusion of Ce02 and Ti02 in the composition adds a yellow component to the colour which, in turn, minimizes the grayish tint resulting from the nickel. The relative amounts of Ce02 and Ti02 can be adjusted to provide colours ranging from light lemon yellow to -butterscotch- amber. The addition of one or both of those colourants, along with NiO, to the opal glass compositions defined below yields colourations resembling those observed in earthenware and stoneware ceramic materials.
An important additional factor which must be taken into consideration is the selection of colourant levels is the sensitivity of the colouring oxides, particularly nickel ions, to the thermal history of the articles produced from the tinted glass. Culinary ware and tableware prepared from opal glasses are conventionally th ' ermally tempered to enhance the mechanical strength and thermal shock resistance thereof. It is well known that in the thermal tempering process certain of the high temperature characteristics of the glass are -frozen in- upon rapid cooling.
This circumstance is especially true in the case of glasses tinted with nickel ions where the difference in colour between the thermally tempered articles and annealed (slow cooled) articles is quite substantial. Consequently, it is necessary to employ quantities of the colouring materials which will produce the desired tint in the final article, i.e., after the article has been thermally 60 tempered.
The glass compositions of the invention consist essentially_ expressed in weight percent on the oxide basis, of 8-9% Na20, 2-2.5% l<201 5-6.5% CaO, 8-10% ZnO, 1-2% B203, 10-11 % A1201, 3-4% F, 0.005-0.1 % NiO, 0-2% CeO2, 0-4% Ti021 0.5-6% Ce02 + Ti02, and 57-61% Si02. Close control of the individual constituents is necessary. For example, higher 65 GB2077716A 2 levels of the colourants, especially the Ce02 and Ti02, can alter the desired chemical and physical properties of the glass. The base glass component must be held within the prescribed limits to assure good melting and forming qualities along with the other physical characteristics required in a spontaneous opal glass. Thus, when the fluoride level fails below 3%, one risks a loss of opacity whereas when one uses amounts above 4% F corrosion of the mould materials 5 utilized in shaping the glass into desired ware geometries can occure. The defined quantities of CaO, ZnO, Na20, and K20 influence the absorption and resulting glass colour imparted by the nickel ions and, hence, must be carefully controlled. The preferred compositions contain about 0.02% NiO, 0.5% Ce02, and 0.25% Ti02.
In the following table are set out glass compositions, expressed in parts by weight on the 10 oxide basis, coming within the parameters of the present invention. Inasmuch as it is not known with which cation (s) the fluorine is combined, it is merely recorded as fluoride (F) in accordance with conventional glass analysis procedure. Moreover, because the sum of the glass constituents totals approximately 100, the values recited in the table can, for all practical purposes, be deemed to be tabulated in terms of weight percent. In general, the volatilization of fluorine during melting of the batch materials is quite high, perhaps as great as 50%. However, the addition of excess fluorine- containing components to the batch to compensate for such loss, and the need for taking special precautions in melting procedure to reduce this loss, are wellrecognized by the glass technologist. Arsenic oxide is present in amounts up to about 0.5% to perform its customary role as a fining agent.
The actual batch ingredients may comprise any material, either the oxides or other compounds, which, when melted together, will be converted into the desired oxides in the proper proportions. The fluorine will commonly be added in the form of sodium silicofluoride or fluorspar (CaF,). Although the description reflects laboratory scale melting, it will be appreciated that the compositions recited could be utilized in large scale commercial glass melting units. 25 The batch constituents for the compositions of the examples were compounded, ballmilled - together to aid in securing a homogeneous melt, and then placed into platinum crucibles. The crucibles were covered, introduced into a furnace operating at about 1 450'C-1 55WC, and the batches melted for about four hours. The melts were cast into steel moulds to produce slabs having dimensions of about W' X W' X 1/2'1 (15.2 X 15.2 X 1.27 cms) and the slabs immedi- 30 ately transferred to an annealer operating at about 500'C-550'C.
